This is the Gary V. Audio Experience.

So, you know, I guess the thing that I can open with is I think a lot about this program

and just internships in general and I think that I've been pretty vocal in the past

from my content standpoint of like how like I unbelievably don't believe the ROI of this internship

is the skill set that you're learning. Though I'm sure for some of you, you know, especially knowing

in certain categories, you know, paid media, I feel very confident about. All of them I do,

but there's clearly places where you will learn skill sets. I'm sure you'll learn plenty on Team Gary,

like we're proud of like what we're good at, but this has to be a huge big game of like interpersonal relationships.

It is like you're going to cozy up with each other because it's easy to go through the same shit, right?

It creates a natural bond. This is, it's imperative that you muster up whatever extraverted DNA you have

to just say hello in the kitchen. It's just imperative. It just, I can't explain enough to you that there are 13 people

that work at this company right now that in 19 years are going to be the CMOs of the biggest companies in the world.

I don't know what to tell you. Like so, as you can imagine, if I'm even half right,

the serendipity of one of those people, you know, becoming somebody you have a relationship with,

disproportionately changes the course of your professional career. Not to mention the thing I'm proud of

and lose I'm sure you're feeling this, like from a, from a culture and pet team and how we care about like human stuff.

Like there's the professional aspect of like me being right about that and, you know,

you then becoming way more advanced in your career or 12 years from now because you've tagged along with Lisa or Johnny or Susan

as their careers progressed. There's just also the fact that a shocking amount of people at VaynerMedia end up marrying each other,

becoming singular best friends with each other. Like this, we have a very interesting framework when it comes to human dynamics

that I think lends itself to a lot of ROI and so not every person is going to be extroverted or is comfortable to like roll up on somebody cold

and say what's up, but I promise you there's very few businesses on earth that it's safer than here to do that and I couldn't push you harder to do it.
